In this course, you will:

- Tackle, in small teams, a real-world multidisciplinary challenge taken from the MIT project Decarbonizing Ulan Bator led by Prof. Mike Short.

- Learn and apply state-of-the-art tools and techniques for problem-solving: conceptual modeling, brainstorming, prototyping, and more

- Have the option to continue developing your solution beyond the course, with funding and support dependent on the quality of your suggested solution

We look forward to seeing you in the session!
